I thought I saw a thread like this but it must've been a dream but I found it interesting regardless.  Start with mine.

Democrat:
White male, age 39, secular Catholic from Massachusetts
Socially libertarian: Politically pro-choice but personally pro-life, pro-gay marriage but anti-trans rights, pro-prison abolishment, pro 2A without exceptions
Economically Socialist favoring nationalization of  certain industries
Nationalist: Opposed to illegal immigration and protectionist but for labor rather than nationalist/racial reasons. Supports trade deals with countries that take into account labor, human rights, and the environment.
Non-interventionist including supporting the privatization of the military

Republican:
White male, age 49, Evangelical Protestant from Virginia
Socially Conservative with an emphasis on abortion but pro-civil rights
Economically similar to Charlie Baker or Phil Scott, moderate and pragmatic
Trump-like nationalist
Neoconservative foreign policy

Republican:

Democratic nominee:
*Senator from Colorado, prior experience includes Mayor of Aurora and Aurora City Councilman, and was an attorney before entering politics
*Hispanic male, age 63
*Socially centrist, supports legislation enshrining abortion in the first trimester and gay marriage, as well as supporting basic steps towards racial equity, but views most progressives as going too far and has openly criticized 'the activist wing' of his party
*Economically a social democrat who supports higher taxes on the rich and corporations, slightly lower taxes on the working and middle classes, and a $15 minimum wage
*Foreign policy is somewhat isolationist, believing America should only intervene if a NATO member state is attacked first and supporting resolving foreign issues through diplomacy
*Supports immigration reform, including a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants
*Personality-wise, he is soft spoken, articulate, and generally fits the stereotype of being 'presidential,' but has poor debating skills
*Running mate is the former two-term Governor of Connecticut, who left office two years before the presidential election. She is 58 years old, and more progressive on social issues, as well as more of a 'fighter' to make up for her running mate's meekness. However, she has faced criticism as 'elite' due to her background as the multi-millionaire daughter of the former President of Yale University

Republican nominee:
*Congressman and House Majority Leader from Tennessee, prior experience includes State Senator and State Representative, and was a small business owner before entering politics
*White male, age 60
*Socially centre-right, supports the 'status quo' (including defending both Obergefell and Dobbs) and believes the President should leave most social issues to Congress and the SCOTUS; he has criticized other rightists for their opposition to seperating church and state, but is an outspoken defender of 'family values', once claiming that the Democrats care more about 'hedonistic, single, childless young adults' than working families
*Economically a self-identified 'capital S Small goverment' libertarian who supports the free market and cutting most taxes, as well as cutting military spending
*Foreign policy is isolationist and similar to his opponent's, only he is an outspoken opponent of overseas authoritarianism; one of his more out-of-left-field positions is that he wants to cut ties with Saudi Arabia over their lack of human rights
*Supports raising the cap on legal immigration and downscaling ICE, but also deporting illegal immigrants
*Personality-wise, he is somewhat populist and emphasizes his 'rags-to-riches' background, growing up WWC in Appalachia only to make it big enough with his business to enter politics, and is known for holding events, including rallies and public speeches, on a near daily basis
*Running mate is a freshman Senator from Michigan, elected six years before the presidential election. He is 51 years old, and more of a 'standard' Republican than his libertarian-leaning running mate. He is a Chinese-American originally from New York City, who rose to prominence as a right-leaning television news anchor and moved to Michigan just one year before his Senate run. He is very charismatic, but has a history of expressing mildly conspiratorial beliefs, most notably that the CCP was donating 'hefty sums' to his Senatorial opponent as revenge on his family, specifically his political refugee father

Supports universal healthcare, but is willing to settle for a public option of UHC fails to pass
